Since it is in a pallet, I would be sure the preheat temperature is correct across the entire assembly. We've seen large temperatue delta's across assemblies that are soldered in pallets. Could be overheated even or contact time too long. Interest

Try to process the composite pallet through the wave without any flux and view volume of smoke and if any residue is deposited in the wave when it exits. My guess is that the pallets are releasing some binders that are high boiling and this in turn c

Having problem with a 2X50 SCKT Strip PTH component(fine pitch) bridging on the wave. The PCB runs in wave pallets. Just wanting to know what successful findings have been done to eliminate bridging? Pallet angles? Copper or titanium inserts? Air kni

A feeder verification tool like Bartector will stop any need for time wasted manually verifying the correct part to the correct feeder. Also, there are plenty of pieces of SMT placement equipment out there that offer offline feeder pallet tables that

I am having problems with a product we receive from our overseas plant, where there is excessive "dullness" of solder joints/metal surfaces after running a board on a pallet through wave solder. Seems to be an issue of the pallet, as the solder appe

I do not know who George uses, but we use Ascentec Engineering for our wave pallets. I have no association with them other than they make an excellent product that we continually go to, to get new fixtures from. They can be contacted at (503) 925-194

Steve, KIC does. The new KIC2000 has built in dwell time sensors. You can buy KIC's wavesurfer option (like MOLE's waverider), or you can engineer a custom pallet for 1/3 the price. I made a custom pallet and took advantage of the KIC's automatic

Listen, fancy places and spending lots of money will never replace a good wave profile and a good scrubbing from the garden hose. Get you'r e act together and you need mininimal cleaning of the pallets. Then theywill just clean up well with a littl

Philip, Pl note that there is one more fabricator from Malasia, whom we found to be up to the mark with Wave Soldering Pallets constructed with Durastone/CDM Durastone. They also offer ESD Protected to match ESD guidelines of Assembly & Photo Sensi
